RESUMEN
Nitric oxide (NO), reactive oxygen species (ROS), and phytohormones in plants often initiate responses to sources of abiotic stress. However, we have a poor understanding of the cross-talk between NO, ROS, and phytohormones during exogenous chiral auxin-induced phytotoxicity. In this study, the toxicity of the chiral synthetic auxin herbicide dichlorprop (DCPP) to Arabidopsis thaliana, as well as the mutual regulation of NO, hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), superoxide anion (O2.-), and phytohormones at the enantiomeric level was investigated. The ROS production exhibited an enantioselective manner, further, that was positively correlated with the change of the morphological indicators. This confirmed that ROS played an important role in the enantioselective effect of DCPP. The distribution of ROS and NO was partially overlapped, indicating that the production of NO may be affected by ROS, and also related to the degree of plant damage. In terms of phytohormones, the level of salicylic acid (SA), jasmonic acid (JA), and abscisic acid (ABA) in the whole plant increased as the (R)-DCPP concentration applied increased, however, the trend has changed, when the data of leaves and roots was discussed separately. The results revealed that the redistribution of phytohormones may exist between leaves and roots, caused by the joint action of ROS and NO. The differences in the biological activity identified between the two enantiomers in this study enhance our understanding of the toxicity mechanism of exogenous auxin via their effects on phytohormones.

BACKGROUND: At present, microorganism has been considered as important factors that threaten to buried pipelines with disbonded coatings. Aiming at the problem of unknown corrosion mechanism of sulfate-reducing bacteria (SRB), a series of studies have been carried out in this paper. Spectrophotometer and fluorescent labeling technology are used to study the growth and attachment of SRB in the simulated soil solution. The corrosion behavior of X80 pipeline steel with or without SRB was researched by electrochemical methods such as open circuit potential, dynamic potential polarization curve, and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy. The microscopic morphology of the corrosion products on the surface was observed with a scanning electron microscope (SEM), and the element content of the corrosion products on the surface of the sample after corrosion was observed using X-ray energy spectrum (EDS) analysis. RESULTS: The results showed that the growth and reproduction of SRB caused the pH of the soil simulated solution to increase, which may promote the corrosion of X80 steel. In addition, the cathode reaction of X80 steel in a sterile environment is the reduction of H+, and the main corrosion product is iron oxide. When the soil simulation solution contains SRB, the cathodic reaction is controlled by both H+ reduction and sulfide depolarization reactions, and FeS appears in the corrosion products. CONCLUSION: Although the life cycle of SRB is only about 14 days, the corrosion of X80 steel is greatly promoted by SRB, and even causes corrosion perforation, which will bring huge economic losses and serious safety hazards.
